Uncle Steve was like a father to me, my memories of him are of his endless energy and creativity, his soft spoken very wise advice and his great love of animals. So grateful to grow up close to him and Aunt Cloyce and Keith, and for our recent visit together. My children Zach & Maradith loved him too and we will all miss our dear Uncle Steve

Cloyce I'm so sorry to have heard (Annie K told me) I still have, and enjoy, my Christmas pine cone from Steve. Steve was always extremely nice to me and I know you'll miss him. Sending you my hugs.

Mrs. M, Keith,
Mr. M was ALWAYS so good to me as a kid and adult. He was more than happy to let me hang out while he washed the cars, his motorcycles or paint the front fence or the porch. His French toast was second to none, as he would make it for all the kids after sleeping over in the camper. Riding dirt bikes in PA or across the tracks, boating, skiing... the list is endless of very fond memories.
You all are family to me and Mr. M , like a dad to me.
Love and prayers, Stephen Wolfe

When I was a teen, I can remember steve while he was living with his Mom and Dad in Queenstown, md. He had a fairly new car at the time and I marveled how he was always keeping it so clean. I have always had fond memories of Steve as we got older. God bless Cloyce and Keith.
